Answer:
Pseudopods, or false feet, are found in many protozoa from the brain-eating amoeba to the radiolaria. ... For example, the amoeba is able to change shape and move by pushing cytoplasm outward, creating pseudopods that act as an anchor to pull it forward. They also use the pseudopods to surround and capture prey.
